Clean Diesel Generators
There is a surprisingly high number of people that suffer death because of their generators each year. Without the proper generator safety information, you could be putting you and those you love at risk of carbon monoxide poisoning without even realizing it. As summer hits, so does the summer storm season. As hurricanes start to…
What makes a genset green versus not green? Green is that all gensets manufactured after 2015 must be Tier 4 compliant, an EPA standard the reduces NOx (nitrous oxide) and particle emissions of diesel and spark ignition gasoline or natural gas engines. This will represent a 99% reduction of NOx emissions since Tier 1 implementation.…
Diesel powered generators have the advantage of quick response times to load increases and power outages. Cold start times are about 10 minutes. But with the addition of a block heater start times are about 1-2 minutes at most. Block heaters are one of those unsung technologies for the diesels (works with gas engines as…
In the DC or direct current world, as in batteries in vehicles or electrical storage for solar systems, the units can be wired in parallel, meaning positive to positive and negative to negative poles. This increases the power output by providing more amperage. If wired in series, negative to positive the voltage goes up, i.e.…
